[Verse]
            G    D/F#              C/E           Am7
The road is long       with many a winding turn
     Am7/D    D#dim7 Em             F                 Am7     Am7/D    D
That leads    us     to who   knows where, who knows where
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          G   D/F#                   Em    Eb
But I'm strong      strong enough to carry him
G                  Am7/D          G       Am7
   He ain't heavy         he's my brother
 
 
[Verse]
 
   Am7/D  G  D/F#              C/E        Am7
So on  we go     his welfare is my concern
   D  D#dim7 Em         F           Am7        Am7/D
No burden is he      to bear, we'll get there
 
 
[Chorus]
 
       G   D/F#               Em     Eb
For I know     he would not encumber me
G                 Am7/D         G
   He ain't heavy,      he's my brother

If I'm laden at all
      C        D7/C
I'm laden with sadness
     Bm         Dm
that everyone's heart
      Cmaj7  B7          Em   G6/D
Isn't fi-i-lled with the gladness
    C   Em7/B   A7             Am7/D
Of lo-o-o-o-o-o-ve  for one a- nother

It's a long, long road       from which there is no return
Am7/D  D#dim7       Em       F          Am7        Am7/D
While  we're on the way   to there, why not share
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G     D/F#   D    D/F# D     D/F#   Em      Eb
 And the load         Does n't  weigh me     down at all
G                  Am7 Am7/D          G
   He ain't heavy,            he's my brother

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother
The Hollies
The road is long
With a many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
